Abstract

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive, from a network entity associated with a first transmit-receive point (TRP) and a second TRP, an uplink power control configuration that configures a first set of uplink power control parameters associated with the first TRP and a second set of uplink power control parameters associated with the second TRP. The UE may transmit, to the first TRP, a first uplink transmission based at least in part on the first set of uplink power control parameters associated with the first TRP. The UE may transmit, to the second TRP, a second uplink transmission based at least in part on the second set of uplink power control parameters associated with the second TRP. Numerous other aspects are described.
